My issue with the clock isn’t about “is it a safe”, my issue is, is that that could be an item targeted to steal. So if the clock is stolen... there go the valuables.

My dad was a master carpenter. When he built our house, he designed one window with a window ledge that lifted. When the window ledge was lifted, a narrow metal box was hidden in the wall. No one knew this existed until the will was read. He never told anyone, which is the secret to success. It was held in place so that even if wiping it down, it didn't move.

With how popular Spam is in hawaii, You can't have that Spam Can safe in the islands. It will be gone in seconds. LOL

I bought that screwdriver safe at a Goodwill store last year. I thought the empty handle was for storing your screws so you don't lose them. It's a great light duty screwdriver.
Even when I'm using a different screwdriver I put all the screws in that one so I don't lose them.

A good bonus video would've been to have the twins try to find the hidden items.

A friend of mine owns a used book store.
He gets people selling off their deceased relatives books by the box full.
He has found two booksafes in boxes.
Long after the person dropped them off.

Also people have just put large denomination bills in the books between pages.
Occasionally a customer would be looking through a book and a large bill would fall out.
The customer would tell him about it and he'd let them have it. Of course the customer would start flipping through several books hoping to find more money.

On the food safes.
After my Mom passed away last year my brother and I went through her food to donate to a food bank.
Now I know that she didn't put anything in foodsafes because I was taking care of her for several years.

But I can definitely see that if someone passed away and stashed valuables in those and their relatives were going through their stuff a lot of valuable stuff will either be thrown away or given away or sold at a garage or estate sale.

Another flaw with the screwdriver is if someone uses it unknowingly to take a screw out of something, then that thing is going to open up and spill its secrets. Unless you hide the screwdriver somewhere anyway, in which case why a screwdriver as the 'smokescreen'?
I would also say, if you do use any of these for coins, or anything else that could rattle around, stuff the thing with cotton or similar filler to keep things from shifting around, and giving away the stash.

Or someone might wanna steal that clock and end up getting more than they initially thought haha

As someone trained in home security, books are the first things people check for valuable items, the last place anyone would look is feminine supplies of some kind, being tampons or pads.

Back in the 70s my parents had a fake ac outlet they used. Just cut a rectangle in the wall and drop it in. Pretty convincing. Had a lot of space in it.

The can stashers are made by cutting the top off and sealing a glass jar in the centre using plaster. hence the white powder.

[codylee]

Good. Now I can get rid of the spare key under my door mat, and put it in the hairbrush, and leave that next to the doormat

this man is just living his dream nowadays

"Let's just pretend those are high denomination bills" Hey James, that's what I do each day with what's in my wallet! 😕

That hair brush would be no good for your house if you have pictures of yourself around. "Burglar: "Wait, This guy has no hair but he owns a hairbrush?" *Starts investigating it*.

[vovpxmq]

All of this stuff gets sold at the "Estate Sale" Garage Sale for $1.00 and someone wins the jackpot., " There was CASH IN THE BOOK I BOUGHT!

[ellembee]

I would think the brush and shave cream can would be good for traveling (extra cash, jewelry, etc). Especially when a room safe isn't available.

[jeffreysuda]

I had a small desk lamp that had a removable metal plate on the bottom. I removed the screws and realized I could fit 2500 in large bills inside. Nice

[michaelpsihogios]

I love how thorough you are with the products and don't just try and figure out how they work.

Put your valuables in a Ziploc bag, put that in a half-empty real JIF jar, and fill it back up with more peanut butter. Ultra-secure. :)
